RE: #20 Rice at Texas St. Game Thread
Never, ever easy. I think some people have stopped participating in the in-game threads because this team makes it so darn nerve-racking; every single game.
Outstanding effort by Chase. One strong positive this season-- we end the regular season with an exceptional 17-6 road record (which just happens to be better than our 17-8 home record). Safe trip home, and one day to get mentally ready for the needed sweep of Marshall (which will require ending our 5-game first game of series losing streak against a likely first round pitcher in Aaron Blair).

Sweet, never an easy place to play. Somehow the Owls persevere through walt posting on a game thread.
Good start to the week. Tough test Thursday.

I guess 6 errors makes it hard to have your runs earned, but it looks to me like only two of the five runs were earned.

Just “listened” to this game “live” via this thread. Count me in among the group you mentioned--- ouch, this team is nerve-racking to follow

I've had work, kids, soccer, etc. interfering with my ability to follow the team. But, for every one of these game threads that I do post in, I probably follow 2-3 others passively. But, yeah, it's never easy. I guess that's to be expected with the new bats - scores being down inevitably means lots of tight games.
